Erin Schurr is the new women’s lacrosse coach at SUNYIT.

Schurr, also the head coach of the Wildcats’ women’s soccer team, has served as an assistant lacrosse coach the last two seasons. Schurr was a standout lacrosse and soccer player at Fredonia State, and served as head soccer coach at Cheektowaga High School before joining the SUNYIT staff in 2010.

Schurr takes over a program that will be in its third year next season.

“I’m very excited to have been given this opportunity to lead the women’s lacrosse program at SUNYIT,” she said. “Looking at our success so far coupled with the incredible recruiting opportunities provided by the overall direction SUNYIT has been headed in, I think we can build not just a competitive program, but a championship one.”

The Wildcats were 6-10 overall last year, and 5-4 in the North East Athletic Conference. They reached the NEAC playoffs, dropping a first-round game to Cazenovia.
